The Many Benefits of All-On-4 Implants

Missing several teeth isn’t just a cosmetic concern — it can significantly impact your oral health. The good news is that you have plenty of options for restoring your smile. Dentures and implants are the most commonly discussed options, but they aren’t the only option. All-On-4 implants are another option that combines the coverage of dentures with the strength of an implant.

Dental implants are just one of the many services offered at Northern Virginia Oral, Maxillofacial & Implant Surgery. Our skilled providers believe that dental implants can be the key for healthy, beautiful smiles, which is why we offer single implants as well as All-On-4 implants.

We’ve created a quick guide to share the many benefits of All-On-4 implants.

The coverage you need and the strength you can trust

All-on-4 implants combine the best of dentures and dental implants. All-On-4 implants replace a full arch of missing teeth. The denture teeth are secured with just four implant posts. As a result, you’ll benefit from:

Easy maintenance

Because four titanium posts secure your implants, you won’t need to use messy denture glues to keep your dentures in place. Not only can you skip the adhesives, but you can also skip the overnight soaking. All-On-4 implants aren’t removable and don’t require soaking like dentures.

To keep your mouth healthy, keep these tips in mind:

Use a soft-bristled toothbrush and brush twice daily

Use a toothpaste with the American Dental Association (ADA) seal

Floss under the denture bridge

Use a water flosser if necessary

Use mouthwash once daily

Avoid bad oral habits like using your teeth to open packages

Instant results

When you’re missing teeth, one of your first priorities is restoring your mouth quickly. With All-On-4 implants, you can get the smile you want in one appointment. No more waiting weeks for traditional dentures to be manufactured.

During your procedure, we can extract any teeth (if necessary), place your implants, and set your denture teeth. This means you can get the smile you’ve dreamed of in just one day!

Cost-savings

All-On-4 implants can reduce your risk of high-cost expenses in the future, such as:

Treatments for bone-related conditions (such as bone atrophy)

Treatments for gum disease associated with poor oral health

Replacement dentures (caused by jaw changes due to bone atrophy)

When you take care of your smile, you’re investing in the health of your mouth.
